  • Hi there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear you are currently having chemotherapy.

    We always suggest patients to be cautious and check with their own specialist team when it comes to using any complementary or alternative therapy products to make sure they are safe to use.

    Unfortunately there are many products available on the market claiming various health benefits that don't have the research or evidence to back up these claims. In some cases they can cause more harm than good so do check these out with your doctor or nurse before proceeding to use them.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    All the best

    Naomi
